point to tackle Freddie Xx'elf’h, holder
of the English title. Hugh McIntosh,
the Australian promoter, who recently
opened a club in London, lias landed
the match and wants to stage the bat
tie Feb. 9. Recently the pair met in
Londou, and the battle was culled a
draw. Many experts nt the ringside
clalnie^that the decision should have
been given to the American. Since
then the Chicago lightweight has been
anxious for a return match, and now
that it lias been granted McFarland Is
more than pleased. As the boys are
bitter enemies now the coming battle
should result in one of the best ever
held in London.

the roles. Although Mi-s .Marlowe is
¡mt great iu the character, she disap
pointed some of the croakers in her
interpretation of Lady Macbeth. She
sustained the trying part well, but In
tragic intensity and imperiousness of

proach Charlotte Cushman, who is
thought Io some to have been the
greatest Lady .Muctieth of her time.
If thi- be true then Miss Marlowe has
fallen below Jamiuschek, Modjeska,
Ristori, Genevieve Ward, Ellen Terry
and Chita Morris. But possibly she
surpassed the most recent Lady Mac

Bussell, wife of Robert Mautell, who
played Macbeth.
Of course in speaking of Lady Mac

re-ent playgoers that Mrs. Patrick
Campbell was the Lady Macbeth to
Forbes Robertson's Macbeth a few
years ago. The last great Lady Mac

her farewell appearance iu this couu

saw Charlotte Cushman hi the part in
New Orleans. She wa- a mere girl

The first "Macbeth” seen in New

John Street theater.
Lady Macbeth, according to Miss
Marlowe's conception, spurs her hus
band on to the blackest of treason I
and the foulest of murders and then
strives to atone by guarding, guiding
and consoling him.
Shakespearean scholars assert that

Nevertheless Miss Marlowe succeeded
in making her conception of the char
